The Kiwanis Club serves about 5,000 meals on Pancake Day each year and has a reputation for really good pancakes. Their secret is no secret. The pancakes are made from scratch, two cups of batter at a time, said David Smith, past Pancake Day chairman. Before the day is over, they will have cooked 800 pounds of Thomas Brothers sausage and have used 1,200 pounds of flour, 245 pounds of butter and 40 gallons of canola oil. Pet Dairies backs a refrigerated truck up to the kitchen to keep milk, orange juice and soft drinks coming.
